Witnesses from Shelbyville Testify in Behalf
Of Mr.. Friday-Continuance of the Trial.

No case in court for several months has at
tracted so much attention as the Ellis divorce
suit The courtroom was packed ali day yes
terday with interested listeners. Among those

fections from her husband, are taking an inter
est in the developments of the trial. Bo.h Mr.
and Mrs. Ellis seem to have multitude of
friends who are willing to lend all the aid posi-
BILE to help along their respective favorites
Mrs. Ellis, who possesses many of the qualities
of handsome woman. takes much interest in
the management of her case, ard she appears to
have her defense well in hand. Ali forenoon and
until o'clock in the afternoon OF yesterday WAS
required to hear the testimony for the plaintiff.
There were some developments of sensational
character all of which were highly relsned by
the crowd of curious spectators
But little testimony for the defense was taken
last evening. The witnesses examined were
nearly all from Shelbyviile, and the object of
their testimony was to prove that Mr.. Friday
did not go to Cincinnati with Mrs Ellis on cleo
ton day, as alleged, but was in Shelbyville that
morning, and at night One witness testified
that he saw Mr.. Friday alight from the 10 o'clock
train from Cincinnati on the night Of election
day, and several others We're positive that they
saw HIM in town as late as 10 o'clock in the
morning. The case will hardly be concluded to-
